I Thought . . . Now I Have A Headache!
Wednesday, April 04, 2007
Katherine, has tagged me with a meme of sorts. Maybe it's an award. I'm not really sure. I do know that I think it is pretty fucking cool!
I will admit to a cirtain amount of envy when I watched Ole Blue dole out his "tags" for this very thing. It's be quite a few days since she bestowed this on me, and she may have thought I didn't know because I haven't acknowledged it in any way. It's just such a surprise, I mean... me? Thinking?? Was Katherine referring to this post maybe? Or this one? It was Probably this one... Maybe.
I guess it doesn't matter which post I wrote that made her think I think, as long as I can successfully come up with five new bloggers to pass the award on to. And therein lies the crux of the matter... Who on earth do I tag?
I have given this a LOT of thought in the days since Kathrine posted. Here is what I have come up with:
1. Finn. Not only does Finn take awesome photographs, she writes from her heart. I tend not to comment on a lot of posts that make me think, because I feel I need to step back, and think about it first. I'm also leery of saying the wrong thing, I have a very bad reoccurring case of Foot-in-mouth disease.
2. Avitable. I kept coming back to his blog while scanning my bloglines trying to decide who to choose. I know that the topic is thinking, and I'm sure the guy who made up the meme meant high end stuff. However, where else but at Avitables', will you learn that fisting is approved by the Bible? And if that doesn't make you think, I don't know what will!
3. Cecily. I know Cecily does not read my blog. In fact a lot of the people on my bloglines don't read BPR. That's OK, they don't know I exist because I am hesitant to comment on their blogs. I think out of the few hundred posts I have read at And I wasted all that Birth Control, there might only be one or two that did not send me away thinking profound thoughts.
4. Catch. This is getting harder and harder. There are generally only two types of blogs I visit. Funny blogs and personal blogs. Catch has managed to combine both. One day she will ask us probing questions and tell us snippets of her daily life with her mom and her job. Then the next she will post a picture of rainbow poo!
and lastly,
5. Shelli. If you ignore the last weeks posts - because Mr. Fab has taken over and is alternately sexing up the polar bears or killing them off, Shelli writes about things that a lot of bloggers shy away from. She writes in a way that instantly connects you to how she was feeling and makes you sit back and remember similar things that have happened in your life. And sometimes that's hard to do - to go back and remember the fear and grief of a loved ones death. But She also writes about the happy moments in her life with the same intensity, again, drawing you back to memories or making you look forward to experiencing it for yourself!
Whew. It really is hard to pick and choose from the hundred-some blogs on my list, Every blog in my bloglines is there because I get a lot of enjoyment from reading it.

I just wanted to be first. I am a lurker as well. I never comment, except here of course. I read a lot of blogs, only from your blogroll of course, I find them funny and heartfelt. Good luck with your choices, it definitely won't be easy. Call me.
RoxDar
I'm friggin' first, dude.
Thanks for giving me some new blogs to read! I'm always looking for a good read.
damn, RoxDar! What the hell. ;)
You. Tagged. Me. Again!
But since you paid me compliments, too, I guess I'll let you live.
I'll try to remember to do this one, but I don't think so good.
"where else but at Avitables', will you learn that fisting is approved by the Bible? And if that doesn't make you think, I don't know what will!"
lmfao!!! you are SO RIGHT!!
You did good - can't wait to check some of these out!
YAY FOR YOU!!!
I don't know if Shelli's blog will ever be the same after Mr. Fab desicrated it.
You do know that thinking is a dangerous pasttime?
RoxDar dude, i was totally gonna call you, but then you called me and woked me up!
Sheila uhm second LOL
Sheila You freaking crack me up. *smooches*
Mr.Fab Dude, what i say becomes the truth! Deal with it!
Avitable Muah! I like tagging you. It gives me an excuse to grab ur ass
WebMiz I had no idea that the bible was so explicit!
Tug Yay for me! plus im eating pizza right now!
Lynda I know. i feel so bad for shelli! I dont think she expected fab to act so normal! (for him)
Uh, not to be completely anal, or anything... (okay, that's exactly what I'm doing), but RoxDar and my comment got published at exactly the same time... so, we're both first.
YES WE ARE, dammit!
So to be technically anal, since my post is longer, therefore I was typing for a longer period of time and thus started first, technically I'm still first. I don't like a tie, I like to be on top. WAAAAAHHHHH!
RoxDar
Well, RoxDar, that depends on your typing skills. If you type 60 words per minute, and I only type 30 words per minute... we could of started at the same time! ;)
And, I've never fought with a girl about who wants to be on top... hm. :D
I guess I'll accept the tie.. I type about 50 wpm. However it is exciting to have a little girl on girl action (guess the snakes made me jeolous).... :)
RoxDar
Okay, since you accepted the tie, I will tell you that I think I type faster than 30 words per minute! :$
Oh, Blue, are you still exercising for comments, cuz RoxDar and I could drag out this conversation longer if you'd like. :D
GIRLS! Please! Cant we all just getalong? I think I know a way to settle this once and for all. Do either of you have a big vat of jello? We could also do the naked wrestling in cream corn. Which do you prefer? Winner takes all rights firstdomnessisity. Shaddup! Its a real word i just maked up!
Sheila I refuse to answer that on the grounds that it may make me have to exercise more!
Congrats on the award but shame on you for subjecting me to the fisting is in the bible post, I think i'll be warped forever now. LOL
Squirrel Ohh did ya go check it out? Its not like you weren't warned!
cream corn gets into place it DOESN'T belong.. Now is this really Blue or did Mr. Fab overtake your comments...Sounds like someone wants free porn?!
RoxDar
Are you still exercising for comments?? You know you'll have to work off that chocolate rabbit or mini eggs, or maltesers, or other varieties of chocolate that you will be consuming over the weekend. I go by the reasoning that the kids don't really need to eat that much anyway. I'll walk next week when the weatherman PROMISED me it would be nice out.
RoxDar
Aww. I make you think. Sorry. ;)
Thanks. You made my day, darlin'.
Big D's plane lands in 3 hours and 15 minutes, so unless you post previous to this, Sheila can have firsties!!!!!
RoxDar
omg, the pressure.... what if I don't make it here first?! Will I let you down, RoxDar?! :(
I can't believe I'm the 25th poster! HOORAY!
You'd never let me down, we'll race a different day!!!
(I could always get over to Blue's and delete all previous comments to yours, sound good??)
RoxDar
Thank You Blue...this really means a lot to me...You are very special...and I read you because I find you halarious and refreshing. Does this mean I have to come up with 5 bloggers? Oh man...thats tough...can I come up with 20??? lol.....thanks Blue, you are a sweetheart and I wish you and your family a Happy Easter!
Rox Dar and you would know about the corn because...
Rox Dar you know, i really think I hate you. Exercise sucks ass, plus summer has been cancled, hadnt you heard?
Finn And it makes my brain ache!
RoxDar Excited much? I assume you will be busy wecoming Big d home by the time i get around to posting tonight
Sheila dontworry! I have a solution !!
Malnutured Snay Yo get a gold star!
RoxDar I dont delete comments, shame on you!
Catch You deserved it. XOX

RoxDar
